Minister for European Affairs of Belgium Olivier Sastel blames Germany for lack of solidarity in crisis management in the euro area and criticizes the claim of Berlin and Paris to rule Europe in an interview published in the newspaper Le Soir. “The benefits Germany provides the single (European) market will be offset by the acceptance of the Eurobond, which would help the countries of the monetary union to secure uniformity of credit conditions in the markets, “said the Belgian minister. The Belgian Minister also says that Germany and France tend to determine the course of Europe, particularly as regards the euro crisis. “Europe no longer take decisions only after a Franco-German meeting! It is too complex as a practice. ” In the same climate, Jacek Rostofski, Finance Minister of Poland, which holds the EU presidency, warned against the dismantling of the eurozone. “Europe’s elite, among them the German will have to decide if they want to keep the euro, albeit overpriced, or not,” he warned in an interview in the Polish press earlier this week.
